goodness i can't believe it people will still defend him.You know something when Giroud misses many chances like at Monaco i did not criticize him even based on that you know why?its because he has always not been clinical.The only way a team can improve is by indentifying its problems and solving them.Arsenal has Giroud as the
main cf and Welbeck as backup to him.Giroud has done well scoring some goals some too important but collectively he does more harm than good.Do not use moments to judge a player judge him based on content.Giroud does not excel in many games than he excels in games.As a
main cf you need to be consistent.I see people here saying Giroud can not dribble he cant do this he cant do that but its a bit crazy to criticize him for that because every player has his own style.Giroud limitations as a player costs arsenal and will cost us a lot.Most importantly his poor finishing which has cost us several times.Not good enough.His style of play is ok for us but a
striker who can take on players and run behind defences very well would make us very strong and also should be clinical.For Welbeck he needs to works on his finishing and composure by doing the basic things right.He rushes infront of goal too much.For now he is just above average.However he can excel if he works on improving.Giroud and Welbeck will always be a pain in arsenal's neck for most part.Some will call me stupid but hey at least i want to analyze the problem.People may support Giroud or Welbeck to lead the line next season but as the saying
goes if you fool me once shame on you but if you fool me twice shame on me.Will you let Giroud and Welbeck fool you again?
Given Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Mesut Ozil will also be knocking on the door for a place in the starting line - up to provide the creative class behind the
main striker, it remains to be seen what system Wenger
goes with.
I'm really curious who is
going to replace Giroud — Wenger was never
going to get a
striker this window but with his
main man out something must be done and done quick.
Morale is down, toxicity in the stands is spreading to the dressing room, pay attention to Ozil and Sanchez and even Bellerins body language, the playing for a lost cause... If I'm Ozil there is no way I'm putting in a similar level of performance I did last season if the «
main striker»
goes missing for 14 games despite creating 141 chances and breaking the premier league record
Another possible transfer target should be Kevin Volland; he's
going to be the next
main striker in die mannschaft.
I too have much regard for Giroud but we are never
going to win the title with his standard as
main striker, despite his relative success and at 31 he can not be expected to play third fiddle behind the LACAZETTE and P - MA.
Will Wenger
go for Alexis as
main striker?
may be we'll win the UCLwith OG as our
main striker, Sanchez can
go
But chill out, Arsene won't buy him or any other
striker just like last season as he is
going to count on Giroud and Sanogo as our
main strikers and guess what!
While the Spaniard made a positive initial impact at Stamford Bridge, he's
gone six games without finding the back of the net, and naturally as the
main striker at Chelsea without too much depth behind him, it has hurt Antonio Conte and his side.
If he could bang a lot of goals as a
main striker, I believe he would have a good chance to
go to Russia.
Fact is, Giroud + Sanogo will not score more goals than Aguero + Dzeko and Costa + Drogba hence if Giroud and Sanogo are gonna be Arsenal's
main strikers, Arsenal has a very small probabilty to win the title.
Wenger shot down rumours of Giroud departure, I'd rather we let him
go but once a better
striker arrives that is the
main thing.
Aguero is said to be keen on joining Real Madrid, according to The Sun, but their report also suggests that Madrid may not agree to meet his transfer fee and that City would prefer not to see the
striker go tom a big rival for the Champions League which is their
main target.
Alexis and Walcott can always switch to the wings as the game
goes on but Walcott should be the
main striker (9).
I have to say both players are very talented and would add depth to our squad, however as far as
strikers are concerned, for once I wish we would not
go for a project and convert a Draxler or Gotze into a
striker but sign a guy who has mastered the position in at least one of Europe's
main leagues and preferably in the PL.
With Arsenal supposedly one of the
main contenders to sign the young
striker this summer, Gooners should be crossing our fingers and hoping that these talks between player and club
go well for us and it is certainly possible.
Also, with the stance that Giroud will start the season next season as our
main striker, I believe we will
go for a young talent fopr
striker, but not at a price above 20 mil.
No serious
striker is
going to want to come to a club where the manager has had Giroud as his
main man for 4 years and genuinely believes he is a top player.
I agree mostly with what has been said, I do actually think that Lacazette is the cheaper and younger option which will obviously prove vital for Wenger and Aubamayang is a better player maybe but when you consider he will disappear every other year to
go and play in the ACON we would be losing our
main striker for an important part of the season too often and that has to be a serious issue for any team
But overall, it would be a shocking decision to
go with Walcott as our
main CF, and not buy a new
striker, and I'll explain why.
campbell or sanogo should
go on loan now and replaced with 30 * brazilian jonas free agent 80 - 82rating prev valencia
main striker worth 11m champ League 14app = 8g, 5 ass la liga113app = 36g / 16ass excellent = ball control, very good = dribble, preditor, long shots good = finishing, positioning, vision decent = free kick, speed, passing last season comparison; # ave 0.87 shots outside area better than giroud # 39 % take ons better than giroud not far from welbeck # 56 % shot accuracy would rival the best finishers in the prem.
Gone are the days when most teams played with
strikers as their
main goalscorers, supplied by the crosses from traditional wingers.
I have a suspicion that the
main striker we're gonna target will be a Lacazette type of player, only allot cheaper.
I wouldn't be surprised if Giroud remains our
main strikers, but he's inevitably
going to drop in form, and that's when we need our other
strikers to step up, mainly Perez.
Sure che defended brilliantly especially back four but that means our
main striker plus outside forwards should have been more intelligent maybe Giroud should have come back towards midfielders with Sanchez and Ramsey running on ahead... Sanchez Ramsey just werent in box nearly enough times especially first half and Giroud should have realised pretty quickly he wasnt
going to get joy in between two cbs.
To
go from watching RVP to Giroud as the
main striker is excruciatingly painful to watch.
I used to think he was hopeless as a
striker but I admired his teamwork and workrate but recently, even his work rate has
gone so we are left with a donkey (and thats insulting to donkeys — they work hard) as our
main striker
We are only
going to buy one of them, because another slot is for
main striker and CB.
You'd really have to ask yourself if he'd still be here if he wasn't French.Wenger has every right to sell Giroud.If we were very ambitious we would've sold him long ago.We're treating him as if he's a crucial player.The lesson will only be learnt when Lacazette
goes out with a long term injury.We will then see how good the back ups are.To me he's not a super sub as he's the kind of
striker who requires service.Being a super sub is not enough because remember he's the next in line if anything happens to Lacazette.Giroud was Arsenal's
main striker for a reason.Last season 99 % of the matches he scored coming of the bench were matches he should have started to give us that aerial presence but Wenger shockingly started Sanchez.It's a shame fans will blame him next season again for his short comings.The guy is just not good.It's not good enough to be strong in aerial battles alone and weak in almost every other aspect.I expect Arsenal and Arsene to do better.He must be sold.
invariably the higher league placings are
going to be determined by the goals of your
main striker not by a super-sub.
Giroud was always
going to be the
main striker still, throwing Perez in when he's clearly not ready was unfair, having him try and forge an understanding with Ox and Theo so early in a big match was an iffy call.
Giroud does not deserve to lead the arsenal line next season.He should be replaced do u know why?It is because he is always
going to miss a lot of chances and will cost us.people who support him to lead the line have not studied his game clearly.every season he will continue to cost us.But at least i wont say he is useless or something.He is on the pitch and gives his all so he is useful.He is not clinical and not good at all.He is a
striker who is just above average but sometimes even performs below average in his 3 years over here.Be honest and say it as it is.Some people use stats to constantly defend him yet if you watch him you will be shocked.Walcott can lead the line he has everything to.but as i said he lacks the aggressiveness and physique to be the
main man.that will
go against him so many times.so its better for him to remain on the wings.Giroud does not deserve it.We all know that.
The most important stat that cost us is he
went 15 games without scoring a single goal showing he's not good enough to be
main striker and NO scoring a hat - trick against an already relegated Aston Villa who were the worst team in the league does not signal a return to form!
15 goals in 13 appearances is very impressive, although of course if he is
going to cost around the # 50 million mark and be the club's
main striker, than he's
going to have to hit at least 25 - 30 goals in all competitions.
Also, I don't know why, but I felt we were not
going to stop with Vardy being the
main striker, I felt we would get another.
I remember he
went more than 14 games without a goal when Leicester won the league, that for a
main striker is unacceptable.
He made Wayne Rooney his
main target but he looks set to miss out on the Manchester United
striker, with the Red Devils refusing to let him
go.
Maybe Poldi scores a goal today and he will be named our
main striker, same
goes for Young Sonogo and Cambell.
Now, Theo: I won't say Wenger should start him as our
main striker against MUFCkers, I'd
go with Welbeck in the middle, flanked on either side by Theo and Sanchez.
Which other manager in the whole wide world benches his
strikers when his team wants to
go and play
main rivals away from home?
Of course he's
going to do well because he plays for ARSENAL but, the fact is he is our worst
main striker for the last 15 years and Benzema will be an upgrade in every single department in comparison to Giroud
There are times in the game when the
main striker will
go wide, with Sanchez
going central to mix up things.
So they have
gone off the boil a bit and certainly
main striker Alvaro Morata, who came on as a sub at Carrow Road, isn't looking all that close to scoring anytime soon.
Now there are a few reasons Inter had such control over the match including the energy and tenacity of Kondogbia and Gagliardini, the willingness of Candreva and Perisic to come back and help mark Milan's wingers (mainly Deelofeu - his speed was their
main threat considering that Nagatomo had Suso in his back pocket), the high press on Milan's backline forcing them to
go long to a
striker that couldn't hold up the ball, and the fact that Medel and Miranda had Bacca under lock and key.
Also however, Lacazette is
going to be the
main striker because Auba is cup tied.
But I will very pissed is the summer
gone and Arsene does nt buy someone and starts the next seaosn with Bendtner and Van Persie as our
main strikers.
